Default Keeping males w/ females
I have just about a full grown adult male and a juvenile female. i want to know if i can keep the juvenile female in the same enclosure as the male or will he try to breed with her immediately?

i haven't had her weighed but i'm pretty sure she is way too lightweight and young still to breed so i want to make sure if she'll be safe with an adult male without him wanting to breed like crazy.

If the animal is not ready to breed yet you should wait on placing her with him because there is the possibility he will breed with her.

Absolutely do NOT house them together. Do not ever mix gecko genders unless you and they are all ready for breeding.
